Description
The Frigidaire handle and latch assembly is an OEM replacement part responsible for securing and latching the dishwasher door when it is closed for a wash cycle. This part is typically located on the front panel of the dishwasher, near the top of the door. It ensures that the dishwasher door remains securely closed during operation, preventing water and steam from escaping the interior.
Causes of a bad handle and latch assembly can include repeated use leading to wear and tear, accidental damage from forceful closing or opening, or internal mechanical failures. If the assembly is compromised, the dishwasher may not start, or it could leak during cycles.
Symptoms of a bad handle and latch assembly include:
- Difficulty in opening or closing the dishwasher door
- The door not latching properly
- The dishwasher not starting or pausing mid-cycle
- Water leakage from the door during operation
This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.
